LogiNode is a complex puzzle game set in a network of nodes, where players must deduce the color or absence of hidden nodes based on given information. This Minesweeper-like game encourages logical thinking and eliminates the need for guessing, providing a unique and challenging experience for puzzle enthusiasts. It's recommended for players familiar with similar games such as Hexcells, as the difficulty level can be high for newcomers.
